The Leupold 50234 Standard Base provides a rock-solid mounting platform specifically engineered for Cooper Arms Model 16, 22, and 23 rifles. This precision-machined scope base eliminates the guesswork in optics mounting, delivering the rigid foundation required for consistent long-range accuracy. The matte black finish resists glare while maintaining a professional appearance that complements any rifle configuration.
What Makes This Different
Unlike generic scope bases that require modification or shimming, the Leupold 50234 features factory-precise dimensions tailored to Cooper Arms' exact specifications. The base incorporates Leupold's proven two-piece design that distributes mounting stress evenly across the receiver. This engineering approach reduces flex under recoil and maintains zero retention through thousands of rounds, where universal bases often fail to deliver consistent performance.
Key Features
- Factory-matched dimensions for Cooper Arms Models 16, 22, and 23 rifles
- Precision-machined from aircraft-grade aluminum alloy
- Matte black anodized finish resists corrosion and eliminates reflective glare
- Standard Leupold ring spacing accommodates most variable power scopes
- Two-piece construction allows proper eye relief adjustment
- Windage adjustment capability built into base design
- Pre-drilled and tapped holes ensure perfect receiver alignment
Field performance depends on the foundation beneath your optics, and this base delivers unwavering stability across temperature extremes and heavy recoil conditions. The machined aluminum construction maintains dimensional stability from sub-zero mountain hunts to desert precision shooting competitions. Professional gunsmiths recognize this base as the standard for Cooper Arms installations, eliminating the trial-and-error approach common with aftermarket alternatives.
